Sponsored Water Ski for Miles for Hope

scan0001Poole Soroptimist Juanita Byrne-Quinn has pledged to water ski 12 miles over the summer for the BCHA fund-raising initiative, Miles for Hope.

Although Juanita has skied most of her life, at the age of 80 something, her pledge is no mean feat.

The Miles for Hope challenge is open to all. BCHA’s target is a total of 4831 pledged miles. Why 4831? This is the furthest distance that any of the human trafficking victims in their care has been trafficked, from China.

And the great thing about Miles for Hope is that you can travel your pledged miles however you want. Juanita’s chosen to water ski her miles but you could run, bike or drive or even pledge air miles or ride a horse – it’s up to you!
